Member of: Bold, Milliseconde topographie
Electroacoustic artist, surround sound composer, occasional curator, old typewriter aficionado and sandcastle manufacturer. Careless about aesthetic tags, Nicolas Bernier navigates trough live electronics, installations, musique concrète, art video, performance, music for dance, theater and cinema. In the midst of this eclecticism, his artistic concerns remain constant: the balance between the cerebral and the sensual and between organic sound sources and digital processing. Multiplying collaboration, his work has been heared with choregrapher Ginette Laurin, director Denis Marleau, musician Delphine Measroch, guitar player Simon Trottier, sound artists Alexis Bellavance, Érick d’Orion, Hélène Prévost, Jacques Poulin-Denis and many more involved in different artistic spheres. In 2006 he created Ekumen, a microorganism dedicated to the dissemination of sound art. In 2008, he took the art direction of the electroacoustic concert producer Réseaux des arts médiatiques. He has won many awards for his works that have been broadcast in festivals from around the world such as Akousma (Québec), Mutek (Québec), DotMov Festival (Japan) et Transmediale (Germany).
